Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Hot Dogs

    Insert a wooden skewer into each hot dog, pushing it in about halfway. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well blended.

  3. 3

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vegetable oil until smooth. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Frying

  1. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep pot or fryer, heat 2 cups of vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  2. 5

    Dip and Fry

    Dip each skewered hot dog into the batter, making sure to coat it evenly. Carefully place the coated hot dog into the hot oil. Fry for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown, turning occasionally for even cooking.

  3. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the corn dogs from the oil and let them drain on paper towels. Serve warm with your choice of condiments.
